rs6000: New attributes for load/store: "sign_extend", "update" and "indexed"
The new attributes replace the instruction types *_ext*, *_u, *_ux. This simplifies all code that does not care about the addressing modes, putting the burden on the code that does care (mostly the scheduling descriptions for certain CPUs). It fixes a few minor bugs in the process. The "update" and "indexed" attributes are automatic for any insn that has a MEM as operand 0 or 1. Other insns have to set it manually, if they do not like the default (which is "no"). Insns that are type load/store/fpload/fpstore but have fewer than two operands need to set it too, or the compiler will crash. There are very few of those. This tries not to change semantics anywhere; in particular, the string and multiple instructions set both "update" and "indexed" (although they are neither). From-SVN: r210190
